Might be wandering a little off topic here, but this subject reminds me of a situation sis went through a couple years back.
She was working in the insurance industry and got hired as an upper, mid-level manager at another company. Guy she replaced jumped ship to another company. She took over his job shortly after Thanksgiving.
In late February, she got called into the big bosses' office. Was told she was getting fired for the dismal results of her division the previous year (that had just ended two months ago).
She was able to show numbers that proved her area was trending towards a turn around since she took over. She also pointed out that she had only been around for about one month of the bad year. Didn't matter. She got the boot.
Care to guess who they hired to replace her? If you guessed the guy that had quit her job to take the other one (and who had mostly been responsible for the last year's dismal performance) you'd be right.
She later found out from coworkers the guy was friends with the big boss, and wanted his old job back because his new company was getting ready to sack him for poor performance.
